Work smart not hard.

Completely normal to be bitter. You were doing your job and had your life in order, then your company disrupted all that by laying you off.

But that’s the past and now you need to put on a positive face and work smart and hard to find another job. Don’t let your bitterness cloud your attitude. You’ve got to show the best you to potential employers, not the disgruntled you.

Word of mouth is often a good way to find positions, ask friends and acquaintances if they know of any positions.

Universities need a lot of staff and tend to be more stable than businesses. Also I’ve heard many times that working for temp agencies often leads to permanent jobs when the temp job is over.

Firefox doesn’t have a huge number of pages like Google does. The problem is collusion between browser and websites run by the same company.

Bill Burr said we should start sinking cruise ships.

Whatever you do don’t spend the limit of what you can afford, you will be struggling constantly.

They are so poor and so small that they can’t curate the content and ads, it’s just too much with only billions of dollars of profit to work with.

VPN plus cheap YouTube is probably less than YouTube. And VPN is useful for more than just YouTube.

If that doesn’t work then reverse the polarity.

My son has asthma and it’s his birthday, can you do it for $10? Also can you bring it to Springfield Heights?

The online requirements are unnerving to me. I feel like Microsoft wants my personal files. I don’t think it’s to outright steal or scam, but there is something in everyone’s data they want. Maybe AI training. Anyway I’m not giving it up willingly.

Yeah it’s the old garbage in, garbage out problem, the AI algorithms don’t really understand what they are outputting.

I think at this point voice recognition and text generation AI would be more useful as something like a phone assistant. You could tell it complex things like “Mute my phone for the next 2 hours” or “Notify me if I receive an email from John Smith.” Those sort of things could be easily done by AI algorithms that A) Understand your voice and B) Are programmed to know all the features of the OS. Hopefully with a known dataset like a phone OS there shouldn’t be hallucination problems, the AI could just act as an OS concierge.
